Africa's Children - in stories and pictures

Africa's Children - beyond words - read for yourself...

 

Welcome to Out of Africa - Too - Africa's Children section.  Below you will find links to what it is growing up in East Africa.  You will enter into the lives of African Children though their stories and pictures.  I hope that you heart will be touched by them as they have mine by the Children of Africa...

Since 1992 I have been working with Africa's children in places such as Sudan, Uganda, Kenya and Rwanda...In the last year I have focused on "the Kid's born into  the Slums" of Kampala.  I work with a Ugandan organization , Alpha and Omega Ministries that has helped many Ugandan children to break out of the chains of poverty through the empowerment of education.

On the left you can see children in the slums and on the right, what happens when they are in school and they receive care and nurture both inside and out.  Proper hygiene training like simple soap and water since that by itself will eliminate countless of problems for children.

These pages show both needs and results, take a look, let the pictures speak to you, as much as the stories...on the other hand...read the stories and let your heart respond with compassion...jon

 

How Can I Help? 

What Can I do to help a Child in Africa?

Since the early nineties I  have been involved with caring for children.  Last year we formed Ambassadors of Hope International, a registered non-profit organization in the USA .dedicated to working with the children of Uganda and East Africa, children who are born into slums and have little to hope for unless  someone cares and makes a difference in their lives by coming and giving their time, by someone sponsoring a child so that they can get an ongoing education. Many people give a donation that pooled with others translates into help for a child, a hope filled  future.

If you are interested in helping in any way, please contact me by email at jonblanc@kabiza.com  or you can send a donation by check to:

Ambassadors of Hope International, PO Box 2974, Blaine Wa 98231Ambassadors of Hope International - PO Box 2974, Blaine WA 98231

You will receive a tax receipt if you are in the USA and a detailed account of what will happen with your donation.  Less than 10% if any, will be used to handle your gift. In the USA everyone is a volunteer and there are no employees.  The money is sent to Alpha and Omega Ministries where it is administered by qualified staff-members, some of whom have worked with Ugandan children for over 20 years.

If you desire toPick the Batik of your choice... sponsor a child with a monthly donation, it is $25 per month or $300 per year in one donation. You will receive a picture and background of a child, 4 letters a year and reports from the teachers on the progress of the child. You can also visit your sponsored child in Uganda and actually work at the school where your child attends. We will send you photographs of your child in class, eating lunch, playing.   Thank you for caring...jon

We do have a special gift for you for any donation over 25 dollars, or the sponsorship of a child.  We have various beautiful 20" by 30" hand made in Uganda Batiks that we will send to you with the receipt for your donation.  You can pick out your batik today and email me your choice along with your planned donation, name and address.

  Take a look at the Batiks.
